TYRE PRESSURE KIT
3
Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: unscrew the inflation
adapter slowly from the container 3 to
prevent any product spatter and store
the container in plastic packaging to
prevent product leaks.
– Affix the driving recommendation
label (located under the container) to
the dashboard where the driver can
see it.
– Put the kit away.
– At the end of this initial inflation op-
eration, air will still escape from the
tyre. You must drive a short distance
in order to seal the hole.

(3/3)
– Start immediately and drive at a
speed between 12 to 37 mph (20 to
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre; after driv-
ing a distance of 2 miles (3 km), stop
and check the pressure.
– If the pressure is higher than 1.3 bar
but lower than the recommended
pressure (refer to the label affixed to
the edge of the driver's door), adjust
it. Otherwise, contact an approved
dealer: the tyre cannot be repaired.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
The container must be replaced after
the first use even if liquid remains
inside.
Nothing should be placed
around the driver's feet
as such objects may slide
under the pedals during
sudden braking manoeuvres and
obstruct their use.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and may
lead to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
Following repair with the kit,
do not travel further than
120 miles (200 km). In addi-
tion, reduce your speed and
under no circumstances exceed
48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker,
which you must affix in a prominent
position on the dashboard, reminds
you of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit may need to be replaced.
